Niddrie

Edinburgh

Former housing estate, Greendykes. The current map has this as houses. Housing stock in Niddrie was very poor and it seems that much of the area has been levelled. There are lots of new Scandinavian looking blocks of flats in some parts. No doubt this "field" will be built upon soon. (There are new houses behind the camera.)

A street with no houses in Craigmillar The view of street where the houses have been demolished and have been replaced by grass and weeds. Arthur's Seat can be seen in the background.
Richmond Craigmillar Food Cooperative In the middle of an area of Niddrie being redeveloped, with boarded-up houses behind awaiting demolition.
Duddingston Station Looking north-east along the Edinburgh Suburban Railway, from the bridge over on Duddingston Road West, with the remains of a platform visible on the northern track.
